Fate Kaleid Liner Prisma Illya 2wei Episode 2 Review

OTHER THAN THAT. This episode of Fate Kaleid Liner was pretty packed full of action. Illya starts off the day with a horoscope forecast warning that she’s going to have bad luck and… it turns out to be a REAL understatement. Illya’s caught up in a bunch of freak accidents on her way to school and ends up being brought to the infirmary.

Although the magic girls are concerned with the other Illya (who just ran off) from the other day. Illya thought it was an illusion but it wasn’t and that clone comes back to hunt her down on her way home. Kuro Illya is dressed like Archer from Fate/Stay Night and seems to possess all of the Archer abilities. She’s pretty powerful and as a result of Illya losing Kuro Illya, her magic powers are drained by a third.

WEIRDEST moment is when Kuro Illya kisses Miyu to disarm her… and I mean, REALLY KISSES HER. LIKE MAKE UP KISS. Whereas regular Illya is super innocent, Kuro Illya seems pretty uh promiscuous. (She actually drains energy from people by kissing them *facepalm)

Rin ends up working part time at Luvia’s mansion as a maid (cause she ran out of money for her gems). The group assembles at Luvia’s house to form a plan against Kuro Illya.

The final plan to battle and capture Kuro is pretty exciting. We do get to see Caster’s weapon – rule breaker, in MIyu’s hand even though it doesn’t exactly work on Kuro. Kuro Illya is amazing in both physical battle and magic analytics. Luckily, the group DOES succeed in capturing Kuro but in the previews we hear a bit of how Kuro is ruining Illya’s life at her school. Well I guess we’ll see how the three girls get along… I don’t know how I feel about Kuro yet. I felt bad her for being mocked by Rin and Luvia who trapped her in the bottomless bog but at the same time I can’t exactly find myself empathize with Kuro (even knowing her backstory from the manga).
